CinemaCon: First Look At ‘X-Men: Dark Phoenix’ Logo Revealed

The first look at the logo for X-Men: Dark Phoenix was revealed during 20th Century Fox’s CinemaCon presentation today.

Simon Kinberg makes his directorial debut with the film as the franchise takes another stab at the Dark Phoenix saga, the comic book storyline where Jean Grey struggled to control and succumbed to the Phoenix Force within. The project is currently set to undergo significant reshoots and could be one of the last movies set in Fox’s original shared universe.

In addition to directing, Kinberg is also producing the film with Hutch Parker and Lauren Schuler Donner. Kinberg himself has been involved with the franchise for just over a decade, having written the main installments of the ongoing film series since The Last Stand with the exception of X-Men: First Class. He has also produced Deadpool 2 and is producing The New Mutants.

The X-Men have had a tricky few years. Due to the success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the fact that 20th Century Fox Fox owns the film rights to everyone’s favorite mutants, they’ve been relegated to smaller stories. But now, as Disney aims to buy Fox and incorporate the X-Men and Fantastic Four into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the X-Men are back.

After having multiple X-Men related books cancelled, the characters seem to be going through a renaissance. With books like X-Men Gold, X-Men Red and Old Man Logan coming out, it’s a good time to be a X-Men fan.
